With a bit of a delay we've finally arrived at the qualifying session. With the most recent driver changes, and the "race drivers testing for different teams"-stuff there was lots of confusion among the drivers, as they no longer knew for which team they actually have to participate in the quali. It took a while, but they finally got it sorted.

Weather won't be an issue today, no rain reported for the whole duration of the session. A couple of team boosts are being used, driver boosts not so much.

Scala the first one with a timed lap, still far off from the practice times

Silva's only marginally faster

O'Neill with the 2nd best time of the whole weekend, granting him pole for now

As the first two Cremasco too only just below the 1:18s

Kederer fails to match the lap of his teammate, still 2nd place

Jalving goes fastest, stunning lap

Rodríguez makes it a MPR 1-2

Pedersen takes 5th, not that good considering the double boost

Steer avoids last place by 1 thousand of a second

6th place for McClure

Warrington takes 5th

Slowest time so far for Elleker, Spangenberg in the background came out of the pits just infront of the Brit, holding him up for almost the whole lap

7th fastest time for Keranen

A rather poor lap by Warrington

Last round winner Hinz slots in right behind the MPR duo

9th place for Worseling

De Bruyker takes 5th

Just to lose it to Silvestre moments later

8th place for Nell

Copeman takes 11th

Good lap by Gilson to take 5th

Spangenberg with the slowest time, he lost out even more due to the tangle with Elleker

Standings after the first runs

Rodríguez improves, but it isn't enough to beat teammate Jalving

Slight improvement for McClure, but he remains in 15th

John Warrington moves past Nell to 9th

Up 2 to 14th for Silva

That's more like it for Pedersen, 6th place

Scala goes up to 12th

Elleker again with a slow lap, this time he had an off in turn 9

Huge improvement for Worseling sees him go to 6th

Jalving goes even faster

Nell improves his time, but remains in 12th

6th place for Copeman now

Not that much better than his 1st attempt, but at least 1 place up for Spangenberg

Warrington with a slight improvement, not enough to move up a position though

And that's it, dominating performance by Jalving and the MPR team, most definitely favourites on the race win tomorrow.

9th and 14th isn't quite what I was hoping for with a team boost but it's decent nonetheless. Very good first outing by Gigi Silvestre. Hoping for some good points, mate. Matteo will need a really good race to snatch some points, but it's not impossible. Let's hope the setup favors the race pace more.
